| 3 | When Judas, his betrayer, saw that he was condemned, he repented and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders, |
| 4 | saying, "I have sinned in betraying innocent blood." They said, "What is that to us? See to it yourself." |
| 5 | And throwing down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed; and he went and hanged himself. |
| 6 | But the chief priests, taking the pieces of silver, said, "It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, since they are blood money." |
| 7 | So they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in. |
